. Each year, the National Federation of the Blind awards scholarships to
recognize achievement by blind and low-vision scholars. Thanks to our
generous partners, there are thirty $8,000 merit-based scholarships
currently available. And the cash value is only one aspect of this
prestigious program.

We also provide funding to travel to and attend the National Federation of
the Blind’s national convention with the opportunity to network with more
blind students, to exchange information and ideas, and to meet and talk
with hundreds of blind people who are successfully working in many
occupations and professions. Apply for the scholarship program now.

"Applying for this prestigious scholarship is challenging but worth it.
Applicants come from various backgrounds including those who have never
heard of the NFB before. If one does not get selected for one year; do not
be discouraged and apply again." - Colin Wong, winner of the 2022 Kenneth
Jernigan Scholarship
